Chapter 675 - Gritting My Teeth (1/2)
Sitting in the carriage for the last few days, Gu Bailu ate, slept, woke up, and ate again, and her belly seemed to have become even more prominent; it was very obvious that she was pregnant.
It was probably because it knew its father was next to it that the baby was growing faster.
Feng Qingtian hugged her. “Go to sleep. We should reach Pale Emperor City tomorrow, and I’m going to make up for lost time.”
Gu Bailu closed her eyes and fell asleep quickly.
Looking at the woman sleeping soundly in his arms, Feng Qingtian kissed her lips, then smiled at the scent of duck neck.
Ah Luo, who was holding a bowl of duck necks and munching with gusto in another corner of the carriage, looked warily at Feng Qingtian.
Feng Qingtian hadn’t wanted to buy any duck necks at first, but Ah Luo kept yelling that she wanted to eat them. Gu Bailu felt a little bad for Ah Luo, who had been left on her own outside the crown prince’s residence for so long, so she had asked Feng Qingtian to buy some.
Worried that Feng Qingtian wouldn’t let her eat them, Ah Luo left with the bowl and sat at the front of the carriage.
Feng Qingtian remembered that Gu Bailu had a maid before who was very smart.
He wondered where that maid had gone.
…
In the bamboo grove in the crown prince’s residence in Heavenly Wind Empire, the woman on the bed sat up excitedly. “What did you say? Mo Qian’er is dead?”
“Yes, my lady. Red Guard said it himself. There should be no mistake,” the maid whispered to Su Muwei in delight.
Su Muwei was so happy she almost burst out laughing. Mo Qian’er was finally dead, and had died in front of His Highness. She would never be a hindrance again.
She didn’t expect Princess Zi to be so capable.
Su Muwei suddenly burst into tears again. “Is she really dead? She must’ve died to save me. It’s all my fault. I killed her… I’ll go see His Highness and apologize to him…”
“My lady, your wounds haven’t healed yet. You shouldn’t be moving around so much.” The maid persuaded her to lie back down.
